“What an amazing experience! Johnny looked after our cat for a week while we were in Morocco- we came back to a happy shiny cat and a pristine house. He is respectful, thoughtful and very friendly. Luna has the best time and I can’t recommend her new friend Johnny highly enough! Brilliant service!”


About: Hi, I'm Tom and I live with my fiancée, Millie, and our 3 year-old dog Rosie! I have always had dogs, and have always been relied on by friends, family, and even colleagues to provide care for their dogs - whether they need walks, boarding, or house sitting. I have experience with puppies, having trained two dogs (including Rosie) from puppy age, as well as senior dogs and, of course, those in between! I also have experience of providing post-surgery care and understand the importance of providing proper care and rehabilitation. Millie has also had dogs as family pets for her entire life, so we are both well experienced dog carers and owners. I'm currently in a hybrid job role and able to work from home 2-3 days per week, so I will be available on the days that I work from home, as well as weekends and evenings! As we have a dog at home, we go on walks anyway, so your dogs will be able to come along! Rosie is very small, so doesn't generally have long walks. I am happy to take larger, more energetic dogs on separate, longer walks. I have a good-sized, secure garden which is perfect for toileting and playing. I have a friendly, relaxed dog at home who will keep your dog company! I have a small crate, so smaller dogs can be crated if required. Your dog can spend the days with me in our home office, but our home is across three floors so there is plenty of room if your dog prefers their own space. We have two doggy cameras set up around the home and looking into the garden, so your dogs are always being well looked after. We have access to a large field right outside our house and, due to the location and layout of our street, it's generally only used by us and our neighbours. There are lots of quiet streets in our immediate area, and we live within a 10-minute drive of large woodland areas which are perfect for walks.

About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life, from our senior Yorkshire terriers, to my Greek rescue cat. We currently have 2 Yorkshire terriers and 3 Maine coons age 9 months. Our house is busy but lots of room for our fur babies. No children so plenty of time to devote to our pets. All our pets are friendly, the cats are very dog savvy and actually behave more like dogs! We are also experienced in diabetic cats so could assist if necessary. I work from home so I’m always around to help My partner has a flexible job as an airline pilot, but I work from home so have plenty of time to help with your pets. Including weekends and evenings. We have a large enclosed garden for your pets, we have a 5 bedroom detached property so lots of room for your pets to make themselves at home. Our pets are treated like royalty and I would treat yours the same. They are allowed anywhere in the house, upstairs, on furniture/beds wherever they please.

About: Caring for dogs is so much more than a job to me, it’s something I truly love. As a newly qualified dog groomer and a proud owner of my 14 year old pup. I’ve learned how to be patient, gentle, and deeply in tune with each dog’s unique needs. My grooming experience has also taught me how to safely and calmly handle dogs, always with care and respect. Whether it’s a playful walk or a quiet cuddle with a senior dog. I treat every dog like family. Your pet’s comfort and happiness will always be my top priority. Pet care is an important part of my weekly routine. I work as a dog groomer from Monday to Wednesday and I’m available for dog walking and sitting from Thursday to Sunday. I can often be flexible around this schedule to accommodate your needs. I do my best to ensure each pet gets attentive, loving care if it’s for a walk, a visit, or an overnight stay. When caring for a dog your home, I follow their usual routine to keep them comfortable and happy. This includes feeding them on schedule, giving plenty of attention and playtime, taking them outside for bathroom breaks, and making sure they feel safe and relaxed. I also keep the home tidy and provide updates so you know your dog is in good hands.

“Thank you so much for looking after Poppy. She has always been so stressed when she has been in kennels and it used to take us many days to get her relaxed again after each trip. She was so much happier this time - being able to stay in her own house and having you come round to play ball and give her a cuddle. She was her normal calm, happy self when we got home and didn’t seem that fussed that we had been away!”

About: I’ve had pets of all breeds and sizes throughout my life, and currently share my home with two sassy miniature dachshunds who keep me on my toes! Being surrounded by dogs isn’t just part of my lifestyle—it’s something I truly love. My entire family owns a variety of dogs, so I’m constantly around different breeds, temperaments, and energy levels. Whether it’s a leisurely stroll or an adventurous hike, I enjoy staying active with pups and making sure they’re well-exercised and happy. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, as I’ve always loved being around animals. I work in early years and am currently studying Childhood Studies with the goal of becoming a teacher, which means my weekdays are structured—but I have plenty of free time on weekends and during school holidays. This makes me especially flexible for last-minute plans or spontaneous days out when you need a sitter you can count on. Whether it’s a weekend walk or a day out , I’m happy to help give your pet the love and attention they deserve. When caring for a pet in their own home, my priority is to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I’ll make sure they’re well-fed, have fresh water, and get plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise based on their needs. I’m respectful of your home and will follow any instructions you provide closely—whether that’s administering medication, sticking to specific feeding times, or maintaining training habits. Most importantly, I aim to create a calm, safe environment so your pet feels secure and happy while you’re away.

I have recently just moved back to Yorkshire after some time away so I am mostly free to hang out with some fur babies!

I don’t currently offer services from my own home however I ensure a safe environment for whomever I am looking after. I know what animals should and shouldn’t eat, and if your pet has any specific requirements ie medicine I am experienced in providing this as my mums cat has hyper thyroidism and requires medicine twice a day. I know to give pets plenty of love, but I also know when an animal wants there own space and would be happy to let them be in their own home if that’s what they require. I would ensure their water bowl is constantly filled up and they have access to toilet breaks and walks and fresh air. I would be happy to give them pet treats and I would stick to feeding schedules. Whatever you require, I would be happy to cater to. To ensure I could react in the best possible way if an emergency scenario we’re to arise, I would need to have emergency contact details on hand as well know who their registered vets are.
